Minase joined the idol group Jams Collection in December 2022 and began gravure work in 2024. The release notes that she has 230,000 TikTok followers and that an online signing event for the digital photobook tied to her FLASH gravure debut recorded the event’s highest sales at that time.
“I had dreamed of publishing a photobook ever since I became an idol, so I’m truly happy that dream has come true. I was able to make it happen because of everyone who supports me every day. Thank you, as always.
“The book brings together many expressions—Sarara as an idol and Sarara as a grown woman. I hope many people will pick it up.”
